Pango library version question

[Leroy]

I am trying to get SG SOS 4.1.2 to run on my Solaris 8 box. I am getting a "fatal: libpangoxft-1.0.so.0: open failed: No such file or directory". Which is clear enough, I dont have the right library.

When I run ldd on sos, the lines related to this problem are:

libpangoxft-1.0.so.0 => (file not found)
libpangox-1.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libpangox-1.0.so.0
libpango-1.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0

So basically I downloaded the latest pango (which is 1.8.0) for my machine, did a pkgadd on it, and yet SOS can't find what it needs. How does this work? I can't find any older versions of pango (google'd it, didn't find any) and I don't know where to find the xft version of the pango libraries.

Thoughts?

Help!

Based on some Internet searching, it looks like pango depends on Xft2 and fontconfig. So try installing fontconfig and then Xft2 and then re-install pango.

i was able to get the latest pango libraries built, along with xft and fontconfig. but now its crashing on libm.so.2. my machine only has libm.so.1 and i can't find a patch on Sun's site that includes an update that I don't already have. Can I get either the source to compile on my machine, or some version that doesn't require this library. I am running SPARC solaris 8. Thanks!
